We are having a little hackathon at work today and tomorrow. We have been split up into 5 teams and my group is going to make a app that will talk with Google Calendar and will be able to show statuses for all our meeting rooms as well as have a client on a tablet outside of the room where you can make a quick booking for the room if it is available.

We have decided to go with Node.js as technology. Great fun! I haven’t looked into it before but it looks really nice after the video-tutorial I looked at and the code I’ve seen We will also be using Backbone with it.

I’ll let you know how it goes and probably will put up some screenshots if we finish the product in time
